    No such thing as a bad sandwich. People are pretending not to like things.

      I don't know, Sandwiches of History has some real stinkers every now and then, such as the Cheese and Banana Sandwich, the Clam and Cheese Sandwich, or the Peanut-Butter Sandwich.

        Sounds delicious. Banana on pizza is a very beloved dish in the Nordics.

        So many tasty things people miss out on due to peer pressure and being afraid to give &quot;strange&quot; food a try.

          I agree with the sentiment, but there&#x27;s probably also a cultural thing. I love root beer, for instance, but from what I understand, many (most?) Europeans who&#x27;ve tried it think it&#x27;s disgusting and tastes like medicine.

            The thing I find fascinating about the root beer thing is that I don&#x27;t recall root beer being an acquired taste. Like, I remember cola being a acquired taste, and Dr. Pepper being an acquired taste, but root beer, best I can recall, I enjoyed right off the bat. Same with most North Americans I know. And yeah, my overseas cousins find the stuff foul.
